I am always an optimistic sort and just figured out the great advantage I have with my broken ankle. I only wear one sock at a time. Thus less wear, less laundry, less carbon footprint, better results for climate change. It does make it more difficult to track pairs after laundry, but hey, I’ll take on that extra work to help the planet. You’re welcome.

And by the way, thanks to my sister who recommended that slip on shoe brand a couple of years ago to help at the airport. Coming in real handy right about now! Well, at least one of them is anyway.

#ATOBTTR Update: Oh, my Cincinnati Reds. By not winning the Texas Rangers series (nice last game but you lost the first two) you are digging yourself in deeper. You need to sweep Houston to get back on your feet. I know that is a tall order, especially with their team this year. But if you do it, you make a statement. Go out and do it as I need to hear more “And This One Belongs To The Reds” before Marty drops the mic. Go Reds!
